I’d just finished working on PwC’s new global brand strategy, The New Equation. But the firm’s president had another priority close to his heart: a three-year, $300 million commitment to helping businesses build trust.

The challenge was giving the initiative a name that planted a flag, connected to the larger strategy, and could stand on its own.

Business is rife with promises about the future. Being ready for what’s next. Navigating change. Becoming what you envision. We took a different approach, framing trust not as an aspiration, but as a prerequisite for progress.

Tomorrow Takes Trust.

The name became the organizing idea for PwC’s trust commitment and its flagship Trust Leadership Institute, which has engaged more than 1,000 executives. It also anchored an ongoing content partnership with Fortune Brand Studio.
